Constantly in a state of tired and depressed or anxious.

I somehow opened up to my coworker about how I am feeling and how I am doing and how I am on meds. Well, I didn't tell him that I cut. I just said depression and anxiety have been acting up lately. He agreed to not tell my dad but based on how I am feeling he really wants me to call my APRN.

I don't know if it'd be worth it. She can't really do anything. I can't go in to see her because I work and she can't adjust...

I'm so hungry. My stomach hurts so bad. But I can't eat. My partner made me have lunch today and I managed half of what they gave me which wasn't much to start with, and only because they sat next to me and waited. And dinner, their mum made soup, and I managed a few mouthfuls. This has been going on for days. I thought I had been getting better. I was managing at least one proper meal a day. But now I can't.

I wish I could eat, it would stop my stomach hurting, it would mean I'd...

I feel like such a worthless human being right now. I can't help but think back to everything that has gone wrong or think of any little stupid thing I have done even back years from now in elementary school. And there are so many of those things. It's not fun.

There are people out there that are so much smarter than me, so much prettier than me, so much better than me at everything overall. I'm just average, if that. I have a hard time doing simple tasks that anyone could do. I'm...

Work is literally killing me but I'm not going to quit or anything like that. I've made too much progress in my job to just blow it all now. But my week pretty much consists of me going to work, going home and taking a nap, waking up for dinner and a shower, then going back to bed for the night.

i got an email from my mum. i feel sick. i dont know how to talk to her. i should never have come out in the first place. this is awful.

im such a shitty person. im such a shitty, shitty person.

Some things are nice. Some things are enjoyable. Even though I'm incredibly overwhelmed and bordering on suicidal. I can still watch Star Trek. My partner made me nice food and I was able to eat it. Yeah I felt guilty but I ate it.

But I can't go much longer without my meds. I'm in a constant state of extreme anxiety. I can't sleep properly. I can't do anything. I need to pack up and clean the whole house by Tuesday. I have an interview I'm not prepared for. I sent my mum an email...
